While I am really excited to be back in South America, returning to the Pacific Northwest for six week allowed me to pursue my favorite pastime, fly fishing, on a number of occasions and in some familiar locations. July and early August provided a great opportunity to visit some trout rivers, pursue some warm water fishes, some summer steel head, and cast a fly into Puget Sound.

| The best part of fly fishing is often the unexpected natural events you witness while out on the water for extended periods of time. In this case it was a greedy tufted puffin gorging itself on a school of candlefish. |
